So the next workout will come a little later, and at the same barbell weight.

But real failure would be to stop short. I wish that 30 days would be enough, but it’s clear at this point that I’ll need to invest more time.

Quitting happens because results are small, or even undetectable. They take too long, or cost too much.

I have great patience, so I don’t mind continuing to move forward on a slowly unfolding project. I believe the end results will prove me right. But even if at Day 60 or Day 90, it doesn’t happen, that will also not be failure.

I will see it as a great experience, something from which more lessons can be drawn.

I totally agree with this: “Quitting happens because results are small, or even undetectable. They take too long, or cost too much.” That’s why I’ve often quit my weight-loss journey in the past. This time around I’ve resolved not to, and I’ve kept at it for a looooong time, even when the results aren’t what I’d like. As you said: “No failure here. Only room to grow.” Nice job, Wade!
